On the 6th of October 2022, we decided to have our civil marriage ceremony at Interlaken, Switzerland. Both me and my wife are students in Switzerland, I am doing my PhD in Zurich and my wife is doing her Masters at Bern, and both of us are International students (only English speaking). Being students we were not at a high end budget, so we were looking out for the best we can do at a lower budget. And to be honest, it would never have been possible without Jan.

Luckily we got in touch with him 3 weeks before the civil marriage ceremony, and he arranged a first meeting at his office with me and my wife, where we explained him all our wishes and our budget, and he tried his best to note everything down and make a draft of the wedding plan in front of us. We wanted a sweet and small civil marriage ceremony in the heart of Switzerland, and that's what he exactly made it to be. In the first meeting we did the pre-payment and got the contract ready with him and within a week of the first meeting, we got a complete set of offers for all the services we needed, and most of them corresponding to our budget that we had. He arranged a perfect location for the reception, at Hotel Interlaken, just 2 minutes walking distance from the civil office, so that we along with our guests could go there directly, without any hastle. The reception area was amazing, as we got both the pavilion (indoor), and the garden attached (outdoor), perfect area for a beautiful wedding, with a superb aperitif. He also arranged the flowers, wedding arch, the wedding cake, translator (in English for the civil ceremony), and also a photographer and a videographer for the complete ceremony, who did a great job. 

We would highly recommend Jan, as a wedding planner, for anyone who would like to tie a knot in Switzerland. Heartiest thanks to you Jan, for making our day so special.

cheers,
